I'm stronger and leaner than I was at 25. But when I was 25, my joints didn't sound like Rice Krispies when I got up in the morning.
My dad managed to live to 66 in spite of himself, though the last seven years were spent with partial paralysis thanks to a series of strokes he had at 59 and 60. Moreso than religion, I think he's the reason I never touched tobacco or drugs and rarely drink alcohol. I'm planning to last a lot longer than 66, assuming that god hasn't already tagged some bus or bullet or lightning bolt with my name.
Oh, yeah, food thread. Uh... protein bar for lunch. >.<

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
